tranfercase question
89 bronco 351 C6 33x12.5 tires
for no apperent reason all of the sudden my bronco will not engage into 4x4 high on the fly. I can hear a slight gear to gear grinding sound and as I slow down and almost get to a stop then it will clunk into 4x4. What could this be? Anyone experiance this? Does a tranfer case have a sychronizer in it?
Thanks

1975ford I have done a search on this problem and it seems that for everyone else it seem to cause their truck to become disabled. Like they cannot go forward until they go in reverse and adventualy they cant move any more.
Mine has no efect to my normal 2wd, will this change or will it only efect my 4x4?
and yes it sounds like a grinding noise going as fast as my tires spin. As I slow down the grinding noise gets slower and slower until just when I stop it will clunk into 4x4. If I stop and put it in 4x4H it goes right in no problem. The reason I know is because when I start driving I can here all the front shafts spining and when I push the shifter up out of 4x4 the spining shafts stop.
What do you think?

It might be that the plastic clips at the end of the shifter fork in the transfer case is broken or worn out.
It could be the shifter is not moving far enough to engage the transfer case.
Does the truck have a body lift?
Are the tire size the same size?

Removal illustrations, details, and part listings.
Check the tag on the transfer case for model number, it should be a Borg-Warner 1356 model. Sorry for the typo "1456".
Here is the details and illustrations of the 1356 t- case. http://www.wildercafe.com/fordtech/Thumbnails.asp

I am currently having somewhat of the same problem as you except my transfer case gets stuck in 4x4 occasionally. I plan to pull it and attempt a rebuild shortly on mine.
